What is that sound
I hear?
You, your cries
muffled by gales of
laughter, rampant emotion...
side effects of that which
helps prevent disease.
Holding you close,
tense, strained by years
of fighting
winning
losing
forging ahead for fear of
falling behind.
I draw you in
for comfort, support.
What's that sound
you hear?
Love beats deep within,
my adoration for you
expressed
through the very
sound of my heart.
